Variety: Flood of Liberal Movies Will Attempt to Sway Election

Amazon Studios released “All In: The Fight for Democracy” on Prime Video on Sept. 18. It’s directed by Oscar-nominated and Emmy-winning filmmakers Garbus and Cortés and focuses on Stacey Abrams, who ran as the Democratic Party’s nominee in the 2018 gubernatorial election in Georgia and was the first Black woman to be a major-party gubernatorial nominee in the United States. She narrowly lost to Republican Brian Kemp, who was accused by Abrams of voter suppression activities after he refused to resign as secretary of state while campaigning for governor.

The campaign for “All In” is targeting voter registration and education with a 22-city bus tour; financial grants given to 14 local organizations in 10 states with stricter voter restrictions; the Ground Game campaign initiative working to register more than 100,000 voters and distribution of “know our rights” materials to at least 1 million voters.

The campaign has already recruited 20 “teacher ambassadors” who will be trained to teach other teachers in their schools and networks on how to utilize these free resources in the classroom.

Odd that amazon won't let the Michael Brown/Ferguson expose by Shelby Steele appear on their platform. Almost like there is an agenda there. If some folks are still undecided at this point, then they shouldn't be voting anyway. But they will.

Nah. That crap only works on those who’re predisposed to believe the horse $hit they’re selling.

I’ve been wondering why the wonderful, beautiful and obviously intelligent Stacy Abrams hasn’t been the subject of an epic movie. I’m going to watch it for sure.

Who needs movies when Biden’s campaign ads are all over cable! It is 10 to 3 Biden ads! Incredible! Where the hell are the Trump ads? Bidens ads are swamping all of the networks!... all of them even the ones that don’t have that many viewers!! You just can’t escape them! They are killing it with the pre-existing conditions and healthcare! This is not good for Trump if there are no counter ads from his camp!!

Will only work, maybe, if people went to watch them.

I get the article, but honestly...who in their right mind spends 10-20 min scanning all the offerings on Prime or Netflix etc and picks something they don't like?

hey hon...do you want to spend $11.95 on a new movie about a woman who lost an election in 2018 who still whines about it? It's only 127 minutes long...

Even centrists don't wanna watch this junk...they'd rather stream an Adam Sandler movie for the zillionth time.

This is all echo chamber stuff.

If a movie is released and no one watches it, does it matter?

By FaceBooking this article I would be adding to the public notice of the films. Won’t do it.

Everyone focuses on voter outreach or urging people to get out and vote, but when it comes to civics, federalism, and understanding the Constitution, these very people are nowhere to be found.

My prediction is that a lot of people will suddenly become interested in their local races again.

There isn’t a wide angle lens large enough to capture her entire girth for the screen.

Don’t know but it would be huge to overcome! I mean it’s every commercial break jomentia is on! His ads are well done and are fooling a lot of people! You don’t need to have campaign rallies when you’re practically 24/7 on the tube! This is something I believe Trump’s team didn’t see coming!

Great Newsbusters article with fantastic writing by the author. However, I am having trouble pronouncing his name.
